Today Architectural Digest takes you to Brooklyn Heights in New York City for a walking tour with architect Nicholas Potts, highlighting some complex architectural details hidden in plain sight.
Just a ferry ride away from Lower Manhattan, the classic buildings of Brooklyn Heights reflect the neighborhood's origins as a residential suburb for the late 19th-century's emerging middle-class. From intricate flourishes to roman columns, a world of architectural influence can be seen from one building to the next, all in the same square mile.
